Douluo Continent: Changing just one word ruined the entire character's persona.

The dazzling magical patterns mostly appear in the form of waves inside the Temple of Poseidon, densely covering the roof, walls, and the seven platforms beneath them.

The golden light flowed slowly, like mercury.

The sacred energy fluctuations made the air here seem to be imbued with the aura of the sea god.

The scepter in Poseidon's hand was currently positioned between her and Tang San.

The golden rhombus-shaped gem on his fist grew brighter and brighter, but the light was not dazzling at all.

Under that golden light,

The trident mark of the Sea God on Tang San's forehead gradually began to shine.

A warm sensation instantly spread throughout my body.

at this moment,

Tang San felt as if every cell in his body had come alive and was dancing with abandon.

This temple of the sea god feels like a giant magic circle.

The central platform where Tang San was located was the eye of this magic array.

A golden six-pointed star began to light up beneath Tang San and Poseidon's feet.

This enormous golden six-pointed star is five meters in diameter, and its six points...

Each of the six beams of golden light pointed to one of the other six platforms, and was released from the six corners, shooting onto the six platforms.

Suddenly, six enormous golden beams of light rose abruptly from the six platforms.

Every beam of light covered all the platforms.

It also completely swallowed the bodies of Xiao Wu and the other six people.

Ye Lin watched all of this quietly, feeling like an outsider.

I wonder what it will be like when I actually face the tenth test of the First Emperor.

The six people clearly felt their bodies being drawn by a strange energy.

Their spiritual energy entered a wondrous world.

In this world,

A special kind of spiritual fluctuation connected with their souls.

In their minds, they felt like a pillar supporting a house.

His body could no longer move an inch, and even the rhythm of his breathing was controlled by the golden light.

Poseidon gazed at Tang San, a faint smile playing on her lips. "Tang San, are you truly ready?"

Tang San did not back down at all, his clear gaze fixed on Poseidon's eyes. "Yes, I am ready."

Poseidon's voice suddenly turned serious.

"The sea god is the god who controls all living things in the sea."

"As the successor of the sea god, you will spare no effort to protect your people."

"Tang San, can you do it?"

Tang San replied without hesitation, "I can."

But deep down I was thinking, "I'll see how things go. If I can't handle it, I'll run away as soon as possible."

Poseidon then asked, "The sea god is the spokesperson for light and the master of the sea."

"Can you ensure that kindness remains forever in your heart, and that you use the power of the sea god for justice forever?"

Tang San affirmed once again, "I will definitely bring the Sea God's justice to the human world."

She added in her mind again,

I say justice is justice, I say evil is evil, and anything that doesn't obey my orders is evil.

Poseidon said, "The Sea God possesses the power to rule over everything in the sea. As the successor of the Sea God, the new generation of the Sea God..."

"You must always remember not to dishonor the dignity of the sea god, and to spread the sea god's divine light to every corner of the sea."

"Use your divine power to assist your people."

"We will not allow any foreign enemies to invade."

Tang San agreed again, "Yes, I will definitely do it."

But I also added in my mind again.

"I am the sea god. Whoever I say is the enemy, that is the real enemy."

Poseidon's gaze seemed to pierce through Tang San's body.

Their eyes met.

Tang San did not try to dodge or block, allowing Poseidon's sharp gaze to penetrate to the deepest part of his eyes.

It's like seeing through one's own soul.

He knew that Poseidon's question was not a routine inquiry, but rather an inquiry made on behalf of the sea god.

But in reality, the Sea God didn't care about any of that; no matter what Tang San answered, she would still pass.

He had long wanted to pin this karma on Tang San.

What Poseidon saw

It is Tang San's inner world.

What her gaze captured was also a flawless inner world.

It was pure black.

Why is it black?

The sea must be so blue it's almost black.

He nodded in satisfaction.

Poseidon's scepter was pointed forward.

The diamond-shaped golden gem on the scepter was then affixed to the trident mark of the Sea God on Tang San's forehead.

"The glory of the sea god will continue because of you."

A surge of scorching energy suddenly flowed from the rhombus-shaped gem into Tang San's mind.

Tang San felt as if his soul had exploded in an instant.

The figure that had appeared before reappeared.

The aged yet deep voice rang out once more at that moment.

Moreover, it was filled with passionate emotion: "The Nine Trials of the Sea God, the Ninth Trial: The Inheritance of the Sea God, now begins."

A dazzling light shone as Poseidon raised her scepter high.

A beam of golden light shot out and struck the very center of the top of the main hall.

Suddenly, intense golden light fell from the sky, and the golden six-pointed star beneath Tang San's feet lit up.

A golden light shone brightly, completely enveloping Tang San and Poseidon's bodies.

But the golden light emanating from the scepter dispersed at that moment.

It transformed into thirteen golden rays that descended from the sky.

Thirteen golden flames formed around the six-pointed star.

A huge golden phantom gradually emerged from behind Poseidon.

"The sacred gate is about to open, and the divinity of the sea god will soon be passed on."

"Candidate for the Sea God! Please step through the gate that the Sea God has opened for you,"

"Use your strength, your heart, your soul, and everything you have to accept the final test from the sea god."

Poseidon's voice suddenly became incredibly high-pitched, and his emotions seemed to have reached an unprecedented peak.

The scepter in her hand shattered with a crash, and along with it,

There are also nine spirit rings surrounding Poseidon's body, enveloping her and Tang San together.

The instant those nine spirit rings shattered, Tang San felt a tremendous change in the surrounding space.

Everything became unreal.

Her body was no longer able to move.

Her entire body was locked in by a vast and boundless energy that she could not even imagine.

Intense golden flames rose into the air around her body.

That seemed to be the energy that appeared after Poseidon's spirit ring shattered; the same flames were also burning on Poseidon's body.

The holiness and majesty on her face gradually disappeared, and all that remained when she looked at Tang San was a kind gaze.

The golden flames on Poseidon's body gradually changed from pale gold to bright gold, and then from bright gold to reddish gold.

Poseidon's body was gradually disappearing amidst the changing colors of the flames.
